Our Spring Book Fair offers eWallet, a safe and secure alternative to cash.  Families can create a free Scholastic eWallet account to add funds and/or invite family and friends to contribute so your child can select their own books. Any unused funds can be spent at The Scholastic Store Online or to fund a future eWallet.  Payments can also be made with cash, a check made payable to “Island Creek Elementary”, or with credit card.  The eWallet is simply an option if you would like an alternative to sending your child to school with cash, or if you would like to use the eWallet link to provide an easy way for other loved ones to support your child’s Book Fair purchases.

Visit our Book Fair homepage to learn more and get started with eWallet::

Happy reading,
